I wandered into here for a bottle of wine and found a selection of wines that I have not seen in years! Excellent place for rare and vintage wine!
I have been going to the store that used to be located next to this store all my life, but when i noticed that my usual place was closed I decided to check out the new store. WHAT A MISTAKE! When i walked in the help was talking to each other and completely ignoring me while I was stuck to choose from a selection of overpriced wine. After finally giving up and making a selection I was greeting wi...
I love this store. Every time I stop by I wind up getting into some very interesting discussions with the staff about wine and where it comes from. I've never felt pressure to buy anything outside of my price range and on top of that every single employee is passionate about their product. To me this is what wine is all about, meeting people, trying new things, and enthusiasm for great discoverie...
I work odd hours, and love that I can show up at 11:30 p.m. most nights and get a bottle of wine. Its a great find!
I work in the neighborhood and was having a bad day so I decided to have some "liquid therapy", and I stopped in here. The store can be overwhelming to a wine amateur like me, but as soon I asked for help, I was helped tremendously. Yeah, I wasn't trying to spend tons of money, ( i was trying to get some Yellowtail, which they don't have) but I walked away with a really nice $15 Pinot Grigio th...
I have never written a review for one of these sites before, but after visiting this store I looked it up to see if other people were on to my new discovery. I was appalled to read a negative review, because I had a GREAT experience!
The staff is absolutely first rate, and owners are some of the most welcoming shopkeepers I've ever encountered. There was a wine tasting that night (I later foun...
I'm a bit flabbergasted by the comment below. We needed a good wine for a barley and mushroom soup we were making for Thanksgiving. The sales clerk helping me (Kim, I think?) recommended a wonderful $12 bottle of red burgundy with earthy notes that really worked with the mushrooms in the soup. I would never have picked this bottle for myself and probably would have spent three times as much unass...
For my age (24) I spend a good deal of hard-earned money on QUALITY wine -- and I care about the shops that I patronize. The best wine stores feel warm and welcoming, with people who smile and try to understand your preferences and give advice that's not based on simply pushing the highest-priced bottle. In fact, the best wine sellers will tell you that they try to offer bottles below a visitor's...
I live close by to this store and stopped in several times. I have never, ever met such unfriendly employees in all of NYC. At first I thought I met someone just on a bad day....then I gave them a 2nd chance. Today was strike 3! I have the ability to purchase the whole store and was treated so poorly that I will be telling all of my friends in NY at every social event. It is a small, limited...
I stopped in Oak & Steel the other night on the way home and it happened to be during their wine tasting hours! Boy did I have a great time! The owners Jim and George were super fun and truly experts on wine and spirits. Everybody in the place was having a great time and it was honestly the most enjoyable wine tasting Ive ever attended! I also left with a few bottles of rare Chardonnay. I will de...
